At present, making use of and reusing the whey is a vital element for the dairy industries. Whey has gone from being a residual, problematic aspect, to being an additional source of income with a multitude of transformation and usage possibilities.
The treatment of whey is focused on recovering all its constituent components and to this end technologies have been developed for its concentration and fractionation, in which a vital role is played by the tangential filtration technologies in which Perinox is specialised.
The very fact that all the components of the whey have been recovered also entails a benefit for the environment by reducing or totally eliminating whey runoff and recovering the water for industrial use.
